YOU GOTTA HAVE FRIENDS, Part 3

What can I say about MM2x4? (That's Matty, Matty, 2-by-4, to the rest of you.) We've known each other for the past six years or so, and he's one of the few people in my life who has been there for me, no matter what—like family.

Matt, and his amazing partner, Rick, have been there through all the ups and downs I've seen in my life:

When I wanna go out, grab a drink, dance all night or just catch a flick, they're always good company.
When work, life and love kicked my ass, they were there with a friendly hug and a word of advice… all without ever making me feel like I was being judged.

The last year of my life hasn't really been a picnic, and while I never doubted Matt's devotion, loyalty or love as a friend, I have to admit: I don't know where I'd be without him. He was there, every step of the way, offering a helping hand, a shoulder to cry on, willing to laugh at my stupid jokes.

Any time I feel overwhelmed by life, I just think about what a good friend Matt is, and keep working—working towards becoming the kind of person he treats me like.
